Dropbox invites

This might be old news to some but hopefully new to others.

By using the bellow invite you get the usual 2GB + 250MB extra and I get the same 250MB bonus as well. Remember that if you register directly at the website without using the invite you wont get the 250MB bonus. The referral link is reusable up to x(?) times so feel free .

I had an account from last year and never used it either until I found a nice use for it.

While away from home and over 3G, I use Airvideo to queue videos for conversion. Airvideo is set to save directly in the Dropbox folder which is then automatically uploaded to dropbox. When around wifi I download all converted videos to the iPhone using the dropbox app.

The thing that's really nice about DropBox vs. just any cloud storage (and certainly vs. just remote storage) is the really seamless integration across Winders/OSX/iOS/Android.

I'm working on a little side-side gig doing some analysis of the current architecture of a product and I'm kind of adding content when/where-ever. So I've got a document in my DropBox folder that I open directly into my Windows text app, and save directly, then the other night my battery (plus noise/heat) of my PC made me grab the MBP, same thing just opened the file right from the DB folder, made more changes. Then later I opened it directly from my iPad and edited it - again directly - no saving and moving, or after-the-fact sync, it was always updated, ready to open and add additional content. Plus, all my changes, which machine, date/time stamp, is fully tracked in the DB log function.

Not really sure I actually have a use for it, signed up using your referral. I might stick some music in there... or something..

Thought this was kinda funny during the dropbox tour.

[Edit] I have a question. I want to put music into my dropbox, but don't to move it completely to there. I could copy it, but I don't particularly want two copies of files.
I assume they're my only options?

Awesome.

It is very handy isn't it? (I mean dropbox, not my invites )

To be honest I wouldn't be using it if there wasn't integration among platforms. More specifically iOS.

already use dropbox. its a terrific tool for students. Not only is it free, but its 1000 times more effective than blackboard. My university uses blackboard and its awful. Never works how its supposed to and very slow. Dropbox on the otherhand is always handy on my comp. Documents are uploaded quickly and its an easy way to allocate documents and information among a large number of places. Don't pay for $#@! like carbonite, save $#@! for free on dropbox!

Somebody get me a doctor, I ain't feelin' ill ...But I ain't feelin' this at all...

Have downloaded the Dropbox app but haven't even signed up yet. Guess I have to get on that. Now who's link am I going to use?? And of course all the links are blocked at work, will have to sign up at home.
